Lily Isaac (mother of The Isaacs singing group who are all Jewish just so you will know who I'm talking about) well her parents went though the holocaust.
She said she lost alot of family members during that time.
So just knowing her story I know it happened.
We are talking about politics jazz. The Bible is full of things that must come to pass with politics involved. There is alot of Politics in the Bible
If you listen to the news you will see how closely they are knit together.

These are the Isaacs in case y'all missed my videos of them.
They perform with the Gaithers too.
The woman in the background is Lily Isaac.
The front three are her kids.
The two women and the man playing the bass are them.

Well, looks like it is official :frown:
Hillary is in there :frown:
Politics is getting Hot!
Who will be the Republican.
I hope certainly not Jeb Bush even though they say he is in the lead :confused:
and certainly not Rand Paul with his stand on Iran!!
So, who is left? I need a reason to vote!
I want to vote but not for these people.
At least Mitt Romney is not running
mile:Might just have to write in whether they win or not.

It's not who is left; it's who is Right. You can always go for a Cruz--Frankie Ford can help you there: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6EVDdt5jrUY << ...Unless you want to go to Cuba...
And then there's this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BXdNYXMQoy8

Was it not Ted Cruz who ran his platform
against Obamacare then stated he was signing up for that.
Already too wishy-washy. :confused:
Might just write in for Kim Russo :laugh:
She might not know too much about the living but seems to know alot about the dead.
We may learn from History :laugh:

Some use the term "wishy-washy", others "flip-flopper", still others "evolving". I reject all of them in favor of "practical". The phrase 'Cutting off your nose to spite your face" comes into play here--Sen. Cruz is being practical. No love for the guy but don't trash him on this--let's see what happens if/as/when he's elected and has the power to do something. Meanwhile, he's taking advantage for his family of something that exists--all props for taking care of his extended family.

You can call it what you want jazz and I'm not trashing him.
He is the one who flip-flopped on a issue he was totally against.
Or was he. We just can't believe what politicians say.
He is the one who trashed the Afforable Health Care and now all
of a sudden he is all for the Health Care. Sounds strange to me.
Maybe just politics. We want to know now what is on his mind.
Not wait till he gets in office. It will be too late then.
Again, I'm not trashing him. Just stating that he flip-flopped.
How can we trust a flip-flopper (I like that word better) :laugh:

Everybody in the Deep Southern Tier (that's the Austin-Tallahassee line and south) wears the footwear known as "flip-flops". He's one of us--what do you have to say about all us "flip-floppers"? Also that term is egregiously anti-intellectual, denying the prospect of "...upon further reflection...." or any sort of further thought and/or compromise. You seem to want unutterable purity from day 1 with no possible course of change to meet different conditions (I am not talking about pandering to the rabble but honest, deeper thought). There are 2 main courses of political action; Defining principles and sticking to them, no matter what--Purists (they seldom get or stay elected) and Realists (usually have principles but they are hidden beneath the need to have power--eventually the principles fade or get overwhelmed--see Sen. Robert Menendez of NJ). Every great once in awhile, you get somebody who combines the best of both. These are not those times. So let's get butt-tight and Hard Right--see how it plays.

Jazz, it is a woman's right to change her mind. I see no reason that should not go for men too.
However, when he makes a complete turn around on something he was that against so
much that he placed it basically at the top of his list as a No No what else will he change his mind.
We will be the ones to suffer. Do you want to take that chance.
We have had too many politicians that we can't trust. When he is starting to campaign and flip-flops
(which I am completely aware of what they are) on something as important as the Health Care, I wonder
what eles he might flip-flop.
To me this has nothing to do with being perfect. It has to do with standing up for what he believes in.
Not flip-flopping because he thinks it might help his chances.
Politics - Lovely Linda - 13-04-2015
He has lost my vote anyway so it really does not matter to me.
If anyone else wants a flip-flopper he is the one.
